Estimating Point and Non-Point Sources of Pollution in Biñan River Basin, the Philippines

Point Sources of Pollution

Economic Causes of Non-Point Pollution in the Boise River

to the river near Parma, which is a short distance from where the Boise River empties into the Snake River. By comparing measurements of nitrogen and phosphorus at Lucky Peak Dam (above Boise) with similar measurements at Parma, an estimate of pollution from both urban and rural sources along the river can be made. Contamination concentrations vary greatly with the level of stream flow because ...

Agricultural Non-point Source Pollution Load Estimation Method in Haihe River Basin

the agricultural non-point source pollution shows some special features such as dispersion, randomness, fuzziness and cumulative compared with industry and other point source pollution. Owing to lacking complete and systematic data on agricultural sources of pollution in the long-term, Agricultural non-point source pollution load of the new method "IS (Investigation-Statistics) estimation metho...

Study on Vegetable Field Evaluation Index System for Non-Point Source Pollution of Dagu River Basin

This research combined data from soil, terrain and meteorological surveys, with quantitative data from soil and water field studies to determine the leaching processes of nitrogen and phosphorus contaminants from field vegetation into the Dagu River. Using the Gray correlation analysis method, precipitation and irrigation were established as the major driving force behind leaching losses from c...

Assessment of point and non-point sources of pollution using a chemical mass balance approach

A survey of the River Kali in western Uttar Pradesh (India) has been carried out to assess the contribution of point and non-point sources of pollution to the river. The river shows strong seasonal dependence for various constituents and the water quality deteriorates sharply as it flows through Muzaffarnagar city. The important characteristic associated with the pollution of the river is the d...
